    There are two ends on a scale which measures the magnitude of an event. There is devastation, and there is the feeling of accomplishment. There is a common theme in the first part of ”Let the Great World Spin” by Colum McCann of finding the beauty in places where everyone else sees darkness, or nothing. Passion is something present in an individual which is hard for that person to explain in words “why?”. It is simply something that one is compelled to do, and everyone has a passion for something.…

    People are born with passion within them but also with a journey ahead of them to find what or where it is intended. Finding that passion comes in the brief or extensive discovery of something that resonates with themselves and their hearts. Passion is built from a simple introduction that quickly grows into more. For Darian Zachek, her passion for golf sparked from her father's attempt at an effort for bonding. At the age of seven years old, Zachek's father would take her out to the driving range as a way of bonding with his daughter, and it was from there that she continued to pursue the game.…

    “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” John Action said these words well over a century ago, and they have greatly impacted the way that people portray governments in a dystopian society. As a result, those that have power often live within something that could—with the correct obliteration of facts—be considered a utopia. Suzanne Collin’s, The Hunger Games, highlights this point in the way that life within the Capitol has a higher standard of living as the normal than what is found in District 12.…

    A theme in the novel The Hunger Games is pain because throughout Katniss’ entire life, she has seen her loved ones die or get hurt. For example, in the book Katniss said, “‘At eleven years old, with Prim just seven, I took over as head of the family’” (Collins, 26). She had to grow up so fast, and with no mother or father figure, she experienced major character development in order to take care of her family. She had almost no one but her sister who loved her, along with the fact that she had no one to guide her through her life.…

    There was a wise man who once said, do it with passion or not at all, because anything worth acting upon will ignite a spark within that is so insatiable that one cannot help but burn with the desire to do it. Passion can be defined as desire, and almost necessity, for something, whether it be love, happiness, work, or life in general. It is in the beginning of Irving Stone’s The Agony and The Ecstasy that we learn what could essentially be Michelangelo’s most defining trait…

    In a mysterious game of hunter and prey, Rainsford finds himself forced to fight for his life from Zaroff. Eventually, he does make it out alive, but not without revenge. This is the best short story I have read recently because it makes everything seem real and relates to some other stories. For example, it relates to The Hunger Games a lot because it is a situation where children are hunting for a sport, like Zaroff hunts people for a sport. This story relates to real life, like wars, because during a war innocent people are dying and humans attack other humans, like in this story.…

    One of the biggest film sagas of all-time came to an epic conclusion over the weekend – as the Jennifer Lawrence-led sequel, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, vigorously dominated the box office. With a thunderous debut of $101 million, Mockingjay – Part 2 put an exclamation point on a masterful (and lucrative) film series. Jennifer Lawrence reprised her role as Katniss Everdeen for what could potentially be the final time (though there are prequels and sequels rumored for the future), but not everything about the hefty debut is worth celebrating. The $101 million domestic return is well below the opening posted by each one of the previous Hunger Games installments, including Mockingjay – Part 1, which post a $121.8 million opening…

    The Hunger Games: Catching Fire follows Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mallark succeeding their victory in the 74th annual Hunger Games. The two must now begin a Victor’s tour, travelling to each district expressing their gratitude and apology for those lost in the games. Although Katniss secretly hopes to spike a rebellion against the Capitol, President Snow initiates a 75th Hunger Games in which Katniss and Peeta are involuntarily entered. This film in particular showcases a variety of developmental themes of behaviour, being one of the many reasons I chose it for this analysis. The film depicts many theories of development that, from a young age, can entirely alter a person’s well being, whether it be positive or negative.…

    When comparing the universes in which Anne of Green Gables and The Hunger Games exist, it is easy to see that the former takes place in a smaller, much more contained environment, whereas the latter inhabits a more expansive and far-reaching world. Despite these contrasting settings, the key element that the two universes both commonly share is the concept of different groups of people, and the varying power dynamics between them. Although utilized in different manners, Collins and Montgomery both enlist the help of food to emphasize and illuminate these power dynamics between characters. In The Hunger Games, Collins introduces Panem, a nation established in a post-apocalyptic world composed of twelve districts; each with a varying degree…
